nVidia & AMD (Video Capture Software included?)

So I've built my last two computers with nVidia GPU's. As far as I can tell with the last line cards, all nVidia cards that are GTX660 or higher come with Shadowplay included with the drivers (which is really nice, I've used it occassionally).

I haven't built any PC's with AMD GPU's yet, but I have to ask if some of the higher-end AMD GPU's come with video capture software? If so, which cards have it? And what is it called?

Looking forward to your replies,
SeanMS

Well, it's a bit late, but if you're still looking for an answer, it doesn't come with the card itself, but rather with AMD's Gaming Evolved app (previously and still known as Raptr, subsequently acquired by AMD).

Works pretty well for still being in a beta state, although the audio very slightly goes out of sync (probably because it doesn't go over 60fps and I was gaming at 100+).
The major dip I had was of 5 fps with CoD Ghosts, but the game is broken by itself already, so it might just be an isolated case.

In any case, it's pretty good; if I recall correctly 10 minutes of 1080p high quality preset, recorded at 60fps, roughly took 4gb of disk space. That's a lot if you consider that Fraps usually takes its toll on the framerate, makes audio heavily go out of sync and records for insane amounts of disk space...
